Julep Maven is a monthly nail polish and beauty subscription box. They make all their own products, so subscribers get a good value each month – over $40 retail worth of product for $24.99 a month.
And, if you sign up for 3-months up front, you get the $19.99 rate.
Each month Julep releases a new collection on the 20th, and you can decide which box you want, you can upgrade to the entire collection, or you can skip that month.
My Subscription Addiction pays for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

This box came with a fold out sheet detailing their latest beauty item - the creme-to-powder shadow stick.
Julep Nail Color in Arielle – Retail Value $14
Julep Nail Color in Jocelyn – Retail Value $14
Arielle is a "smoked fig creme" and Jocelyn is a "cranberry shimmer with holographic microglitter." I like them both, but I think Jocelyn is my favorite this month - it just feels so festive!
Here are both swatched from Julep:
Julep Eyeshadow 101 Creme-to-Powder Eyeshadow Stick in Stone - Retail Value $18
I picked out the stone shade, and I love how neutral/wearable it is! (Swatched below). The formula has a matte finish (they have shimmer versions as well), and the formula is highly pigmented and stays in place. I noticed very little creasing, and the application stick and smudger ends made it super easy to apply.
I will definitely buy this in more shades. This may be my favorite Julep beauty product to date!
This box also came with bonus candy corn (yay!) and a coupon code for 30% off your next Julep order:
Verdict: This is one of my favorite Julep Maven boxes. I love both of my nail polish colors, and the eyeshadow stick is a great discovery. (Plus I'm a sucker for Candy Corn!) What do you think of the October 2015 Julep Maven box? Which items did you pick this month?
